Thread: CF BETA 2 [1.3] Requests

I have a problem when I go to "Albums" and it shows every album. What i mean is, If i just have a single mp3 For instance: Game - Higher, (and i dont have his entire elbum) his album would be listed "Game - The Documentary" and just have his one song there.

Maybe you can have a feature where "Albums" can look for a certain folder. Like in setup up how you have it asking what directory is Music In/ Video/ etc, can you add Albums? Cuz i have all my ALBUMS in 1 folder and music in another. Just dont want them getting mixed together.

Already added that in 1.31....

david do you plan to implement TV support?
a todo list could help

I was also thinking about another cool thing.. after some seconds from the last click on CF, in media mode during playback would be very cool if you can put a fading window showing the current song specs, like duration, codec, bitrate, maybe the album art or a small vumeter.. something cool to cover that plan boring playlist once I press on the screen this window should disappear and let me use CF. After a certain amount of time (customizable?) it should come back, it would be nice

i like this idea!

David,

I am currenty using iGuidance. I am wondering after embedding iGudiacen if we can program the keyboard button to do something else. I dont know if you have been reading Marvin's threads on "The Magnifier" But it would be cool if i can program that button to open/close the magnifier. Also, would it be possible to embed the magnifier so it only comes up on the gps screen?

Well anyway here is the thread on "The Magnifier"
Iguidance 2.0 font size is killing me

David,

Is there any way to associate a button to an application or script? To be clear, I do NOT want to EMBED an application... I just want it to run! (it is a self executable script that I created in AutoIT).

The script I created toggles between 2 different brightness/contrast modes that I configured through powerstrip. Works beautifully, but I cant find a way to 'execute' it from within CF.

I have some problems in embedding CoPilot ... or at least the planning mode

I can embed it using the title 'CoPilot' but sometimes he isn't embedded. It whould be nice to have a setting in external.xml like 'FindPartial' True/False. When true Centrafuse whould try to detect any application with the partial title and false he would work as currently. This would also allow the peoples to embed any softwares who have customs titles like NetStumbler who add the current timestamp to the title.

Also, what the Close button in full screen is supposed to do ? Return to main screen or close the application. I would like to have a button closing the application, so that when I click on it Copilot will be closed completly and return me to the centrafuse main screen. Currently this return me to the main screen, but the software is not closed.

Also, did Centrafuse detect if an application was manually closed and restart it ? Because if I close it from Copilot (or any application embedded), centrafuse will not restart the application when I return in the app.

I know that CoPilot wasn't really successfully embedded in any software, but this way I could at lest work with Centrafuse and CoPilot without too difficulty using the Planning mode embedded in centrafuse and Guidance mode over Centrafuse.

Oh, in case anyone is curious, here is the AutoIT code for the dimming toggle function. You will need to use Powerstrip to create a DAY and a NIGHT setting (change contrast/brightness values to your liking for each mode) and then assign a hot key to each one as follows (or change the keystroke in my script to match yours)
=> night: ctrl-alt-;
=> day: ctrl-alt-'

Code:

; Definition:  
; 0 = night  
; 1 = day    

$var = IniRead("config.ini", "STATUS", "LastMode", "1")    
If $var=1 Then
    ;switch to NIGHT
    Send("^!;")
    IniWrite("config.ini", "STATUS", "LastMode", "0")  
Else
    ;switch to DAY
    Send("^!'")
    IniWrite("config.ini", "STATUS", "LastMode", "1")  
EndIf

EDIT: AutoIT rules!
